Andrew M. Wayment (Andy) graduated in 1998 with high honors from Idaho State University with a major in history and a minor in English. Thereafter, Andy attended the University of Idaho College of Law where, notably, he was a member of the Idaho Law Review. As a member, Andy published an article entitled: “The Second Amendment: A Guard for Our Future Security.” Andy submitted this article to the National Rifle Association for an essay contest and it took first place. He obtained a scholarship from the NRA for his expenses for the third year of law school.
Following his second year of law school and during the Summer of 2000, Andy served as the law clerk for the Honorable N. Randy Smith in Bannock County, Idaho. Thereafter, Andy graduated from law school in the top twenty of his class in May of 2001. Andy then served for two years as the law clerk for the Honorable James J. May in Blaine County, Idaho. Andy feels very blessed to have served with, and learned from, two of the greatest judges in the state of Idaho (of course he isn't biased) and believes these experiences help him every day in his law practice.
In August of 2003, Andy joined Wright Wright & Johnson, PLLC as an associate and later became a partner with that firm. Andy joined forces with Aaron J. Tolson in July of 2015 and is now a partner at Tolson & Wayment, PLLC. Andy currently assists clients with issues in the areas of estate planning, probate, business, contract, collection, family law, natural resource, conservation easement, and real property law. Andy has successfully represented clients both in and out of court.
Andy's family includes his beautiful wife, Kristin, his four daughters, two sons, and a bird dog. When Andy is not at work or with his family, you may find him at the river waiving a fly rod or in the field toting a shotgun. In his spare time, Andy also enjoys freelance writing and he has published numerous articles on hunting and fishing in numerous prestigious magazines and in the local newspaper, The Post Register. Andy's first book on fly fishing entitled, Heaven on Earth: Stories of Fly Fishing, Fun & Faith, was published in 2012.
